Monday's Image of the Week: When One Foot Being Longer can cause Chronic Symptoms

I am hoping one of these 3 photos clearly captures the longer left foot. These inserts were removed from the shoe to check why the left second toe was continually being irritated. He was sent home to check other shoes to see if this was a consistent pattern. This will help in my recommendations on shoe buying. With some situations, patients with this problem need to buy 2 pairs of different shoe sizes and chose one from one pair and the other from the second pair.
